Screentime/editing NOT personality is what makes a team memorable/unmemorable imo...

I agree. The first eliminated team in the present season I can't remember anything about actually, certainly they had less coverage/drama than the first team last season (which had a decent cast I thought).

Reality Fan Forum, where 'enthusiasm' is completely redefined as not meaning having an interest in and having something to say but as having to be completely positive even about aspects of something you disagree on. So both the fan and forum (discussion) aspects are prescribed/limited.

My pick for most unmemorable team is Brad & Victoria from TAR 14. They were just as invisible as Anthony & Stephanie and they lasted one leg longer. B & V were hardly shown in the first 2 legs. In leg 3, after B & V took a risk and missed their flight connection at the beginning of the episode, B & V were absent from the episode until Phil eliminated them at the end. Besides, even though this shouldn't cont, Anthony and Stephanie were the stars of season 13 Elimination Station.

You know, the Insider Vids are the place to get to know teams a lot better. There is a lot of story development in those vids that there is just not time to show during the 42-ish minute episode. If you are serious about TAR and the teams, you should be watching here. And thanks to Will's hard work, you can do it right here:

Brad and Victoria had an excellent storyline with a lot developed in those vids...Victoria's challenges with her multiple hip operations, why the race was so important to Brad....they were definitely not invisible, I felt we were really given a very personal glimpse into them!

Oh my why you forget them lol... Well i watched season 4 above so i dont know your first 2 lines really... David jeff, final 3 and never made to the finish line right? Meredith and maria, sisters with curly hair? Oh i love kelly and jamie, fighting for last with the bamas? I remember jeremy more than sandy. Just ying to remember too.

David and Jeff seemed nice enough, but out of all the teams that made the final 3, they are the only ones I tend to forget. they didn't get much screen time, they were overly likable or despised, they were just sort of there.

Same goes for Jeremy and Sandy, though I remember them a bit more because it's a more recent season.

I base this mainly on the fact that both teams reached the final 3 without much fanfare, there wasn't much to go off when it came to them, they both seem nice, but they aren't memorable at all. I expect some low-placing teams not not be as remembered, they weren't around as much, but when it comes to the top 5/6 in each season, most people remember them and have developed opinions on them, these two seem almost too generic.

David & Jeff were more memorable that Jeremy & Sandy by far even though the 2 guys didn't have much personality. It was quite amusing to see those 2 physical guys struggle so much doing the life guard Fast Forward in Australia. Also, David & Jeff were the only Final 3 team to duplicate what the Guidos achieved by being eliminated in race and not cross the Finish Line. Jeremy & Sandy were a generic couple that managed to finish the race without anything significat happening to them.
